saving solid edge parts

[moog2]

if i open a solid edge assembly, then save it, the upper-case file names change to lower case, and it leaves the .par and .asm in the file names, can i set some sort of save options to fix this, or do i need to clone assembly (hope not)

This would probably be better directed to the Solid Edge forum.

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Are you opening the solid edge assembly in NX?

 

[moog2]

yes, that's right, i want to work on it with NX

As for embedding the old SE extensions in the new names, I doubt that you will be able to automatically avoid that. As for the upper/lower case issue, you might want to look at the setting of the environment variable 'UGII_OPTION=' in the 'ugii_env.dat' file (not sure if this will have any effect, but it's the only thing I can think of).

so it looks like i should specify the variable to be "UPPER"
You'd think that with nothing set (as it is) it wouldn't have changed them from upper to lower, but,I'll give it a try, thanks..
